With our cap position I’d argue that unless we move DBC for a good tendy on a decent contract I expect a futures type deal. Picks and or prospects

Any idea on what teams would be interested?

I’m thinking Detroit, St. Louis, Washington, and maybe Philly

I wonder if there is a deal to be made around Carter Hart for DBC.. another name I wonder if available is Sean Couturier, however, him missing the season and his overall health scares me a little

Not sure the Sens want a contract of a thoroughly damaged 31 year old for the next 7 years at 7.75, with 42 million in signing bonuses. Especially as a center

Detroit, Carolina, Anaheim and Nashville seem like the most obvious suitors given they could easily throw a 7-8M x 7-8 year contract at DeBrincat without it causing any cap issues.

Could also see Washington, Vegas, New York (Islanders) and Colorado being interested, but we may need to take on a cap dump to make it worth cap wise for some of them.

The Ducks haven't been talked about a lot as a DeBrincat suitor but they may make the most sense, provided he's willing to re-sign there.

They've sucked long enough and all the young pieces are in place to be a contender in the future. Adding a 25YR old top line sniper to complement Zegras, McTavish and Fantilli/Carlsson could make a lot of sense for them.

They could include a replacement LW like Henrique (if he would waive his NTC), Comtois or Lundestrom and have prospects/picks to burn.

With how many insanely good LD prospects they have, maybe Gatineau-boy Tyson Hinds could be a centerpiece. Still pissed we passed on him for Ben freaking Roger.

Henrique + Lundestrom + two 2nds is the type of deal I'd expect if we end up having to deal Debrincat.

Seems about right, but I'd push for something like Comtois, Hinds, 2nd.

Haven't watched enough of the Ducks to understand why Comtois has regressed offensively over the last two years, but he seems like the type of player Sens management thirsts after and could be a good reclamation project.
 
I truly think we can find someone who isn't as prolific as DeBrincat, but will fit our mold better and make us more effective wholistically.

Look at Bratt, the guy was phenom but neutralized. It's all about big body scorers with speed. Or players that can be extremely effective in the forecheck consistently (bulldogs).

If Detroit was not in our conference, I take Perron + 17 quite easily.

I think we can find someone of that mold. Perron/Tuch(before he was traded)/DeBrusk.

Our best bet is to do futures, though, and then have the pick of the litter with what we wish to do next (flip it for a goaltender, or a player as mentioned above, or reach into UFA and use the picks to restock the cupboard).

Probably Eakins. He's one of the worst coaches in the league and finds creative ways to stifle hockey IQ and creativity out of players.

If you want to get worked up about what one or two posters (or a handful) say, by all means, have at it. I agree, its your prerogative.

And it's also your own prerogative to get worked up about my post and waste your own time commenting on my comments about them.... Have at it, like you said.

Good talk lol.
 
The ole’ turn a 7th overall + development into a future 20th overall. Not bad.

I get it on the surface no question it’s a loss. We took a chance and it failed . It does happen.

We got one year of legit top 6 production from a good player and if we happen to sign him to a reasonably fair contract relative to his worth it will be a home run.

But I do think he moves

Aren't the Flyers rebuilding? Would think they'd want to focus on building a young core by acquiring high picks and prospects. So, could mean staying low in the standings for another year or two as well. Just a thought.
 
GMs talk to free agents before the Free Agency period begins, and have been doing so for years. This is why trades are announced within a few minutes of the Free Agency period beginning. I'm NOT disputing when the Giroux signing was "announced" just to make that clear. I am talking about when the discussions started.
There are rules for when other teams can start discussions with players and their agents. Do it before being allowed is called tampering.

Wow, 7 years at $7.75 for a 31 year old. Too pricy for me for a player playing to age 38!

Sure there are rules about tampering but free agents signings have been announced a few minutes after the free agency period started. Either they are super fast talkers and signers or the discussions and details have been worked out in advance.

The is zero chance the Sens are bringing in Comptois. Formentons wjc teammates need not apply I’d think.

I know Zibanejad has turned into a legit #1 center, but I still can't believe we passed on Couturier in 2011.

Too late to acquire him now though. No need for another center and his contract is too expensive and too long.

I remember how shocked I was when we passed on him.

Yes there is tampering. It goes on. Like when Matt Murray nixed the trade to Buffalo and then he magically ended up in Toronto with his Soo buddy Dubas.I am sure. Murray and Dubas had no conversations about him ending up in Toronto ...nudge nudge wink wink.

Yes that is true. Now I think there is a period of time allocated for speaking with UFAs before the contract signing day.
